HashMap<String,String> params = new HashMap<String, String>();
params.put("post_message1", "1");
params.put("post_message2", "2");
params.put("post_message3", "3");
params.put("post_file", "file:///storage/emulated/0/Pictures/Screenshots/Screenshot_2016-04-01-22-13-25.png");

final String result = APIc.DownloadFileNotify("http://nashapp.in/test.txt", Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS) + "/test.txt");
new Handler(Looper.getMainLooper()).post(new Runnable() {
@Override

You can use http://nashapp.in/request.php to verify validity of the request variables.
ALERT DIALOG if you need to verify values before parsing
public void alertDialog(String title,String Message){
AlertDialog alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this).create();
alertDialog.setTitle(title);
alertDialog.setMessage(Message);
alertDialog.setButton(AlertDialog.BUTTON_NEUTRAL, "OK",
new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
dialog.dismiss();
}
}
